SOME Pictures of our Place


This is our apartment building. We live on the 12th floor. The hut at the bottom is the guard hut. Note: the guards here are some of the oldest, most frail looking men that I have ever seen. Warm, safe feelings when we see them? No! But, they look like nice Grandpas, and we're trying to work up the nerve to say "Anyeong Haseyo" ("hello") to them.


This is the view from our front door. The walkway to our apartment is open-air, so we get a nice view of our surroundings every time we leave the house. It's been cloudy, like in this picture, almost every day (except 2) that we've been here. We're told it's because it's "monsoon" season (rainy season)...the humidity is crazy!


This is what it looks like on our balcony on laundry day...I was trying to look Asian by doing the "squat sit" and making the victory sign.

We'll post more pictures of our apartment soon. Today wasn't a good day to take them...Sam's hard at work with lesson prep, and I'm still in my pajamas. Coming soon...
